Trend analysis for Greenway Plants, Inc.

Between 2020 and 2022, Greenway Plants, Inc.'s Total Case Rate improved from 2.7 to 0.0 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 100% decrease across 2 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2021, at a TCR of 0.0, while 2020 saw the highest rate, at 2.7, a spread of 2.7 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a wide swing relative to the establishment's overall rate, worth checking the year-by-year table below for whether a single severe year is driving the average, rather than a sustained trend.

Summed across those 3 reporting years, Greenway Plants, Inc. recorded 1 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 3-year trend above alongside establishment size, since a larger workforce naturally accumulates more raw incidents even at a lower per-100-worker rate.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2022)

DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) is computed by OSHA as incidents × 200,000 ÷ hours worked. The 200,000-hour denominator equals roughly 100 full-time workers, which lets establishments of very different sizes be compared directly.

0 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 57,522 hours worked = 0.00 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
